EARTH - It appears that despite all the worry and debate, global warming has once and for all been defeated by the use of thinner jackets. Millions have feared the coming planet-wide disasters that global warming could set in motion, but now it seems the issue is moot thanks to the discovery of thinner coats by Dr. Tanner Lewis of St. Louis, MO.

    A new provision is being hastily written into the Homeland Security Act making it treasonous to wear a heavy coat. The fur lobby is expected to fight the amendment.

        Finally, the scientists have gotten their act together and solved the global warming problem instead of just bitching and whining about it.

        Now if they could just figure out what to do about the global cooling that's gonna happen in 3 years.

        Hmmm, maybe they should consider using thicker jackets to combat global cooling?

        Wow. I think I just had a brain-fart. And I'll be securing the patent rights to it first thing in the morning, so don't even think about trying to take credit for it.

          Forget it, Al Gore already has the patent rights on Global Cooling. That is for the 2012 presidential race.

          Using this concept you could win the "war" on poverty. Find someone who admits to being poor. Kill them. Publicize it. No one else will admit to being poor. Poverty is over.

              I'm sure your ferns will be fine, although you may have to switch from the Boston fern to the Arctic fern

                I have answers:

                1. Yes, if your coat is then examined and certified by a government "coat thinning" agent.

                2. All removed stuffing must be handed over to said government coat thinning agent for weighing and is non-returnable.

                3. Al Gore invented thin coats. Haven't you ever heard of "Gore-tex"?

                Welk, Welk clkbeus99 :)

                      What else would a bathroom cleanser do but "sink"?

                        Failed bathroom cleansers frequently go down the drain...

                                I read where the UN said that more carbon dioxide is produced from cows farting than from Autos. It seems to me if we would start putting beano in cattle feed the problem would be solved and the world would be saved.

                                  I think the Northeast retailers are on this already, you can no longer buy a thick coat in January, by Febuary the bathing suits are out, and forget about salt for the driveway, not gonna be able to get that till next year :)
